    Annual Reviews www.annualreviews.org/aronline Annu. Rev. Fluid Mech. 1991.23 : 179 96 Copyright © 1991 by Annual Reviews Inc. All rights reserved THE THEORY OF HURRICANES Kerry A. Emanuel Center for Meteorology and Physical Oceanography, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02139 KEYWORDS: tropical cyclones, convection,moist convection,finite-amplitude instability INTRODUCTION The hurricane remains one of the outstanding enigmas of fluid dynamics. This is so, in part, because the phenomenonis comparatively difficult to observe and because no laboratory analogue has been discovered. To this it must be added that hurricanes have received surprisingly little attention from the theoretically inclined fluid dynamicist, perhaps owing to an understandable tendency to avoid problems that involve complex thermo- dynamics and lack laboratory analogues. Yet hurricanes involve a rich spectrum of fluid-dynamical processes, including rotating, stratified flow dynamics, boundary layers, convection, and air-sea interaction; as such, they provide a wealth of interesting and consequential research problems. This article reviews recent developments in the theory of hurricanes and delineates the important remaining scientific challenges. THE MATURE HURRICANE: A NATURAL CARNOT ENGINE About 80 rotating circulations knowngenerically as tropical cyclones form over the tropical oceans each year. Of these, roughly 60%reach an intensity (maximumwinds in excess of 32 m s- 1) that qualifies them as hurricanes, a term applied only in the Atlantic and eastern Pacific. (Similar storms in other parts of the world go by different names.) Anexcellent review of the climatology and observed characteristics of these storms is provided by Anthes (1982). Here we use the term hurricane in place of the generic term tropical cyclone.

MILLER: Virtually ever major, credible scientific organization in the world. It’s not just the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Organizations like the National Academy of Sciences, the American Geophysical Union, the American Association for the Advancement of Science. And that's echoed in most countries around the world. All of the most credible, most prestigious scientific organizations accept the fundamental findings of the IPCC. The last comprehensive report from the IPCC, based on research, came out in 2007. And at that time, they said in this report, which is known as AR-4, that there is "very high confidence" that the net effect of human activities since 1750 has been one of warming. Scientists are very careful, unusually careful, about how they put things. But then they say "very likely," or "very high confidence," they’re talking 90%. BROOKS: So it’s not 100%?

    CHAPTER 15 EMANUEL 15.1 Chapter 15 100 Years of Progress in Tropical Cyclone Research KERRY EMANUEL Lorenz Center, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, Massachusetts ABSTRACT A century ago, meteorologists regarded tropical cyclones as shallow vortices, extending upward only a few kilometers into the troposphere, and nothing was known about their physics save that convection was somehow involved. As recently as 1938, a major hurricane struck the densely populated northeastern United States with no warning whatsoever, killing hundreds. In the time since the American Meteorological Society was founded, however, tropical cyclone research blossomed into an endeavor of great breadth and depth, encompassing fields ranging from atmospheric and oceanic dynamics to biogeochemistry, and the precision and scope of forecasts and warnings have achieved a level of success that would have been regarded as impossible only a few decades ago. This chapter attempts to document the extraordinary progress in tropical cyclone research over the last century and to suggest some avenues for productive research over the next one. 1. Introduction As valuable as these contributions were, almost nothing was known about the vertical structure of tropical cyclones, By the time that the American Meteorological Society or the basic physical mechanism that drives them.

  • Numerical Simulations of Hypercanes Charley and Fay in the Caribbean and the Gulf of Mexico Over a Warm Ocean
    Answers Research Journal 5 (2012):13–24. www.answersingenesis.org/arj/v5/hypercanes-charley-and-fay.pdf Numerical Simulations of Hypercanes Charley and Fay in the Caribbean and the Gulf of Mexico over a Warm Ocean Larry Vardiman, Institute for Creation Research, 1806 Royal Lane, Dallas, TX 75229 Wesley Brewer, Fluid Physics International, 403-B Santa Anita Drive, Starkville, MS 39759 Abstract Two tropical cyclones were simulated with the NCAR WRF model to determine if warm sea-surface temperatures would cause them to intensify into hypercanes and follow similar storm tracks as the original cyclones. Hurricane Charley (2004) and Tropical Storm Fay (2008) were successfully replicated with the actual sea-surface temperature of about 30°C (86°F). The sea-surface temperature of the Atlantic Ocean was then warmed to 40°C (104°F) and winds, precipitation, and storm tracks compared to the actual storms. Both storms intensified, but not as much as had been anticipated, and the storm tracks diverged greatly from storm tracks of the actual cyclones. The reason appears to be the large cyclonic circulation which developed off the southeastern coast of the United States and steered the hypercanes away from Florida. Strong vertical wind shears also developed in the circulation which suppresses the intensification of hurricanes. Keywords: NCAR, weather research and forecasting model, WRF, hurricane, hypercane, Hurricane Charley, Tropical Storm Fay, catastrophic plate tectonics Catastrophic Plate Tectonics and Hypercanes ocean ridges, almost in their entirety, formed from In the 1960s images of seafloor topography were molten basaltic rock during the year of the Genesis first published showing a mid-ocean ridge which Flood.
